Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9942,6943 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9942,6943 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 333,308
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 102564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/102564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9942/333,6943/308 is 1/102564
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 333,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(333,308) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(333,308) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(333,308) = ( 333 × 308 ) / 1
LCM(333,308) = 102564 / 1
LCM(333,308) = 102564
